Is there Casino Entertainment for Stag/Hen trips?

Hello - are there restrictions on gambling in Casinos and the like? We are planning a couple of small group visits and it has been requested that a 'night at the wheels' would be a pretty cool thing to do together.  Do you need to registered , become a casino member or show ID evidence to join / enter a casino?

Hello Nicky,

Thanks for your message!  

To enter and gamble at casinos in Ireland, individuals are often required to provide valid photo ID to prove your age, as the legal age to gamble is 18. Some casinos may also request that you register as a member, but these specific requirements can vary from one establishment to another, so it's advisable to check directly with the casino you plan to visit. You might for example wish to contact The Sporting Emporium in Dublin, to find out more about entry requirements, depending on where it is you're thinking of laying your chips!

For more comprehensive and detailed information regarding gambling regulations and guidelines in Ireland, we recommend reaching out to the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland as they are the governing body responsible for overseeing gambling activities and will be in a good position to provide relevant and up-to-date information.

Wishing you many a lucky draw!

Thanks Alex.  I had memories of casinos in London having a requirement to join as a member 24 hours before being allowed in so when I get a list of possible venues I'll contact them to check what they require.

Another suggestion was to arrange to host our own "Casino Event" in a hotel function room by hiring one of those services that bring in wheels and tables as ordered and for a fee lets you "play" but all the money wagered, won and lost stays within the room.

No luck so far trying to find any casino or gaming tables for hire in or around Leinster but as they say...

nothing ventured nothing gained.

Hello Nicky,

Sounds like a great plan!

Wishing you the best of luck in finding the perfect solution.
Hope you have a fantastic and memorable experience here!

Have a great day. ☘️
